About the book: 1966 / Either it happened or it didn’t happen. . . From time immemorial, all real Hungarian fairy tales began like this. Either it was or it wasn’t. . But this little fairy tale that you are about to read needs to start like this: either it will happen or it won’t. . . Because this fairy tale talks about the times that will come many, many years from now, when space flights will become as commonplace as riding a bus today, and people will talk with annoyance about how rarely the space bus runs: here it took five minutes again wait at the stop. Of course, then the children will have completely different toys on their minds, as you will see now.
